1 Es dzirdēju: stipra balss Templī sauca septiņiem eņģeļiem: "Eita un izlejiet septiņus Dieva dusmu kausus pār zemi!" 2 Pirmais gāja un izlēja savu kausu pār zemi, tad piemetās ļauni, nikni augoņi cilvēkiem, kam bija zvēra zīme un kas pielūdza viņa tēlu. 3 Otrs izlēja savu kausu pār jūru; un tā kļuva par asinīm, kā miroņa asinīm, un visa dzīvā radība jūrā nobeidzās. 4 Trešais izlēja savu kausu upēs un ūdens avotos, un tie kļuva par asinīm. 5 Un es dzirdēju eņģeli, kas valda pār ūdeņiem, sakām: "Taisns Tu esi, Svētais, kas Tu esi un biji, ka Tu spriedi tādu tiesu; 6 jo tie ir izlējuši svēto un praviešu asinis, tāpēc Tu tos dzirdīji ar asinīm, viņi to ir pelnījuši." 7 Tad es dzirdēju altārī sakām: "Tiešām, Kungs Dievs, Visuvaldītāj, patiesas un taisnas ir Tavas tiesas!" 8 Ceturtais izlēja savu kausu pār sauli; tad tā dabūja spēku sadedzināt cilvēkus ar uguni. 9 Tā sadega cilvēki lielā karstumā, bet tie zaimoja Dieva Vārdu, kam ir vara pār šīm mocībām, un neatgriezās, lai dotu Dievam godu. 10 Piektais izlēja savu kausu pār zvēra troni; tad viņa valstība tapa tumša, un tie aiz sāpēm sakoda savas mēles. 11 Un tie zaimoja Dievu debesīs savu sāpju un augoņu dēļ, bet neatgriezās no saviem darbiem. 12 Sestais izlēja savu kausu lielajā Eifratas upē; tad izsīka tās ūdens, lai ceļš būtu sagatavots ķēniņiem no saules lēkta puses. 13 Un es redzēju no pūķa mutes un no zvēra mutes un no viltus pravieša mutes iznākam trīs nešķīstus garus kā vardes; 14 tie ir ļauni gari, kas dara brīnumus; tie aiziet pie visiem pasaules ķēniņiem, lai tos pulcinātu cīņai Dieva, Visuvaldītāja, lielajā dienā. 15 "Redzi, Es nāku kā zaglis! Svētīgs, kas ir nomodā un kas tur savas drēbes gatavībā, lai tam nebūtu jāstaigā kailam un nebūtu redzams viņa kauns." 16 Un viņš tos sapulcināja kādā vietā, ko ebreju valodā sauc par Harmagedonu. 17 Septītais izlēja savu kausu gaisā; tad atskanēja stipra balss no Tempļa goda krēsla: "Ir noticis!" 18 Un cēlās zibeņi, atskanēja balsis un pērkoni, un notika liela zemestrīce, tik liela, kāda nav bijusi, kamēr cilvēki dzīvo zemes virsū. 19 Lielā pilsēta saplaisāja trīs daļās, pagānu pilsētas sagruva. Lielā pilsēta Bābele tā tika pieminēta Dieva priekšā, Viņš lika tai pasniegt Savas dusmības vīna kausu. 20 Visas salas pazuda, un kalnu vairs nebija. 21 Liela krusa ar daudz mārciņu smagiem graudiem krita no debesīm uz cilvēkiem, bet cilvēki zaimoja Dievu krusas briesmu dēļ, jo tās posts bija ļoti liels.
The Bowls of God's Anger
1 From the temple I heard a voice shout to the seven angels, “Go and empty the seven bowls of God's anger on the earth.”
2 The first angel emptied his bowl on the earth. At once ugly and painful sores broke out on everyone who had the mark of the beast and worshiped the idol.
3 The second angel emptied his bowl on the sea. At once the sea turned into blood like that of a dead person, and every living thing in the sea died.
4 The third angel emptied his bowl into the rivers and streams. At once they turned to blood. 5 Then I heard the angel, who has power over water, say,
“You have always been,
and you always will be
the holy God.
You had the right
to judge in this way.
6 They poured out the blood
of your people
and your prophets.
So you gave them blood
to drink as they deserve!”
7 After this, I heard
the altar shout,
“Yes, Lord God All-Powerful,
your judgments are honest
and fair.”
8 The fourth angel emptied his bowl on the sun, and it began to scorch people like fire. 9 Everyone was scorched by its great heat, and all of them cursed the name of God who had power over these terrible troubles. But no one turned to God and praised him.
10 The fifth angel emptied his bowl on the throne of the beast. At once darkness covered its kingdom, and its people began biting their tongues in pain. 11 And because of their painful sores, they cursed the God who rules in heaven. But still they did not stop doing evil things.
12 The sixth angel emptied his bowl on the great Euphrates River, and it completely dried up to make a road for the kings from the east. 13 An evil spirit that looked like a frog came out of the mouth of the dragon. One also came out of the mouth of the beast, and another out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 These evil spirits had the power to work miracles. They went to every king on earth, to bring them together for a war against God All-Powerful. But that will be the day of God's great victory.
15 Remember Christ says, “When I come, it will surprise you like a thief! But God will bless you, if you are awake and ready. Then you won't have to walk around naked and be ashamed.”
16 Those armies came together in a place that in Hebrew is called Armagedon.
17 As soon as the seventh angel emptied his bowl in the air, a loud voice from the throne in the temple shouted, “It's done!” 18 There were flashes of lightning, roars of thunder, and the worst earthquake in all history. 19 The great city of Babylon split into three parts, and the cities of other nations fell. So God made Babylon drink from the wine cup filled with his anger. 20 Every island ran away, and the mountains disappeared. 21 Hailstones, weighing about 50 kilograms each, fell from the sky on people. Finally, the people cursed God, because the hail was so terrible.
